International Cricket Trade Week

[superkingdave]

Matt79 and Pick7 traded for Pick 89

I know money is tight at Arden St, so maybe when Saggers gets that bar of soap he admitted he needed, you can borrow it as well. Hygiene is just good manners. kthx

lol, a Collingwood supporter talking about hygeine.

Notice no Englishmen have bought into that part of the conversation

Haha regardless of who the better bowler is there (quite obviously Swann but heyho), trading one off spinner for another is always going to short change one of the teams, or just be absolutely pointless at best. Hilarious suggestion.

Haha, I thought people would notice a pattern when I wanted to trade off Bhajji to some other team in every post. Was a joke.

Seriously though, would trade a young gun batsman for some young fast bowler. Maybe Rahane/ Pujara/ Kohli for Aamir/ Finn/ Hazlewood.

 

[Spikey]

yo england can we have Pattinson back? currently got figures of 7/22.

 

[Arjun]

Uhhh... no!

And hands off Luke Wright. We'd only trade him for Tendulkar.

I'd hate to see Mishy sitting on the bench or far away in Haryana, while flat bowlers get picked because they're so promising and young. And I'd love to see a proper ODI all-rounder in place of Dhoni's other little boy.

 

[Arjun]

Lol, SA wouldn't give up Steyn for Murali Kartik. That's crazy talk Arjun

Go for the big one...if they can't trade Steyn, they can give Wayne Parnell, though this is India, and he may go the Irfan Pathan way...

Wright is a prank-cricketer. He is not a "proper ODI allrounder". Swap Mishra for McLaren or something.

 

[Arjun]

England already have a much better spinner.

Murali Vijay would be handy tstl though. Could swap for someone like Chris Tremlett.

I don't believe Mishra has been given enough chances to be proven so far behind Swann. He's a better bowler than fans and journos say, he's a better bowler than the selectors, coach and captain think, and he's a far better better bowler than any of the so-called spinners picked ahead of him.

Jono, do the trades last only for the duration of the International Cricket Trade Week, i.e., a week; or do they last for a longer period of time? In case the trade lasts for just a week, would a restraining order against a particular traded player by his home country serve to hold the International Cricket Trade as valid in perpetuity?

Trade week allows you to have 7 days of negotiations to find a trade.

If the trade was for a week that would be the stupidest thing ever.

Would the BCCI have the right to unilateral scrapping of deals that turn out to be of the lemon variety in hindsight?

 

[Jono]

Of course

 

[G.I.Joe]

Do these boots make my ass look huge?

 

[Matt79]

Damn BCCI!!! Hopefully Greg Swann isn't in charge of Australia's trading, or we'll demand Steyn in return for Smith, only to fold at the last minute and accept Paul Adams and a glass of cold sick.

 

[Spikey]

pretty sure you'll find Greg Swann's pretty good at getting players, trading players on the other hand

 

[pasag]

Hopefully Geoff Walsh isn't in charge, otherwise we might land Mark Vermeulen.

 

[vcs]

Hilf for Bhajji.

 

[Matt79]

Swann would then resign from Australia and go over to Pakistan.
